Livin’ the Dream

Martha and Augie came to visit us last week. There were moments when Martha and I would look at each other and say, “What are we doing? Who are we?” It’s amazing how quickly our lives can change. It wasn’t that long ago that we were livin’ the single life in our cute cottage in Santa Barbara and encouraging one another to either soak in the freedom of our independence or endure another strange dating fiasco. And here we are now. Moms. The only two people missing from our time together were our own Moms. We knew they would have both been beaming.

One morning as Carl was heading off to work and Martha and I were lounging in our flannel pjs on the couch with our boys, Carl said, “Livin’ the dream.” Indeed. We are!
